I have a follow up on this and I didn't want to create another 
topic for it. The simple hello world app I build with vibe-d does 
not seem to work on the second compile+execution. It throws a 
failed to listen on port/address error on console. I think it is 
the same error as in [1]. Although the commit in [2] hasn't 
seemed to fixed it for me. I appreciate any pointers.

I was also thinking about writing a tutorial about deployment on 
EC2 Ubuntu 20.04. Does anyone think that would be helpful?

Best,
Selim
